"Fine!" Melody relented and got out of the car.
Just as she got out of the car, she lost her balance and fell forward.
Fortunately, Lucas reached out and steadied her by the shoulders, preventing her from taking a tumble.
Melody looked up as she regained her balance, and the two of them looked at each other. They were so close that it made Melody's heart race.
She quickly straightened up and backed away from Lucas, awkwardly saying, "Thank you."
"Be more careful next time." Lucas looked at his empty hand with a deep scowl.
As she walked behind Lucas, Melody could not help but replay the recent close encounter in her mind.
The vivid image of Lucas' face being so near lingered in her mind, his flawless skin and long eyelashes etched in her memory.
Melody patted her chest lightly, forcing her heartbeat to return to normal.
'Lucas will hear my beating heart if it continues to beat so loudly,' she thought.
"What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?" Lucas asked.
"It's nothing," Melody replied.
The two of them made their way to the hospital's examination room. After the nurse sterilized her wound, she put ointment on it before wrapping a bandage around it.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
This book is a good book, but it’s too short. I hope it has a part two👍🏾...
This book is getting boring now. I loved Jeremy, Corinne, Sonny and Lucas. The story needs to end. or bring back more of Jeremy, etc....
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😭 can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
looking forward to more chapters, The same thing is happening to Melody as what happened to Luna, if Luna was back maybe she would set Lucas straight, can't wait to see how Lucas handles the situations that will arrive. Poor Melody....
ya Lucas pay more attention to Melody lets see what happens waiting for more chapters thanks...
